Floods: I was on the ground since day one, says Ismail Sabri


KUALA LUMPUR: I was already on the ground from the first day the floods hit the country on Dec 18 last year, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

"So, if some of you say that they did not see my face, I have been on the ground, in the field since day one. I do not know about the others. I did not see their faces; MPs, state assemblymen," he said in his address in Parliament on Thursday (Jan 20).
